Rare to the market - Believed to date back to the 1850, this characteristic two bedroom semi detached cottage occupies a larger than normal plot in the heart of the village of Scraptoft. Featuring numerous period features including wooden doors, fireplaces, high skirting boards and exposed beams, the gas centrally heated layout includes an entrance porch, lounge, kitchen diner and utility/storage, with the first floor offering two bedrooms and a bathroom. The plot features a driveway to the side giving access to two garages, with a mature rear garden to the side oozing a particularly private feel. Boasting incredible potential for renovation and extension (subject to necessary consent) and available with no upward chain, an immediate viewing comes highly recommended.
